But, I'm not outraged. It's valid to re-imagine 1990 Topps as a 1990 magazine cover. The original 1990 Topps pic wouldn't make sense on a magazine cover. It barely makes sense on a baseball card.

No. It’s him stealing the text of a sports illustrated cover and putting it In a Beckett style cover.
It’s extremely lazy and not at all what a 1990 Topps card looked like, let alone the frank Thomas card.
Even the caption about this being his last hit in comiskey park is wrong. As the Getty image he may not have permission to use in this format is an undated photo of frank. Oh, and the wrong uniform as well. Franks last hit in the old park was in then new silver and black pinstripes uniform.
